Sam graduated from Illinois State University in 2024 with a B.S. in Geography and transitioned directly into a GIS role with Platte River Analytics. There, he contributed to projects for clients across the U.S., primarily in the private energy sector. Two of his proudest accomplishments were developing a comprehensive safety and emergency response map now used in northern states and creating a detailed bike lane map for California to promote resident safety. Outside of work, Sam is a Chicago sports super-fan. He attended six straight home-opening Cubs games with his family and hopes to one day hold Chicago Bears season tickets. He enjoys staying active with golf, MMA and traveling.
